Hawzah News Agency- the text of Shia source of emulation Grand Ayatollah Jafar Sobhani's message is as follows:

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

It is with great sorrow that I received the news of the passing of the respected scholar and cleric, His Eminence Hujjat al-Islam Hajj Sheikh Yahya Abedi Zanjani.

He has rendered scientific services throughout his noble life, especially in the research of Bihar al-Anwar.

May God Almighty bestow His graces and favors upon his soul

Qom, Jafar Sobhani
